Children and safety

A bump on the head, a scratch on the knee or a trip on the step – exploring the world can be a rocky road for kids and a testing time for parents.

CHOICE knows you want to protect your precious cargo whether it's in the car, around the house or in the playground. Our independent product tests and reviews of baby gates, bed rails and toys will help you decide which products are safest. Our helpful information and buying guides explain how to avoid common risks whether it's in the bed, bath or backyard. We'll help you sleep at night knowing your child is safe, but we can't promise a full night's rest. That's up to your little ones!

Avoiding common dangers

At CHOICE, our testers and writers in the babies and children team like to push things to breaking point – after all, that's just what kids do. We're not afraid to crack a skull (as long as it's a toy) or fall out of bed (as long as there's a soft landing), so that your child doesn't need a trip to Emergency to find out when something's unsafe.
